Brrr! The wind is just so chilly today! I walked to get the girls from the bus stop at 2:30, and that wind was cutting through everything! I'm very very happy that I decided to make stew for dinner, and even happier that it's been in the crock pot all day and I don't have to actually DO anything come suppertime!
So...the leaves are gone, it's getting pretty "drab" outside, and we all know that snow is just around the corner. It's kind of a bittersweet time of year for me. I think it would be just "sweet" if it lasted only a couple of months! LOL
This week I am thankful...
1. I have been able to spend most of the week at home! I love doing this, especially as the weather gets colder...that way I'm not having to bundle kids up and buckle/unbuckle carseats a million times to run errands. I can just stay home and be warm :)
2. Jillian Michael's Ripped in 30 video. It's a nice break from the treadmill, and even though my legs and glutes hurt for 2 days after, I know it's doing something good, so I'm thankful that I can do that!
3. That my sister made it back to Canada safe and sound!
4. Crock pots...and stew :)
5. My mother in law. I love the chats we have, and that she or my father in law call just to say hi to the girls!
6. Our house is a little bit more finished, and we are closer than ever to being able to move in. My husband is working so hard on it :)
7. Sweet emails from sweet friends...and just when I need it too!
8. That the girls seem to finally be catching onto the "no toys in the living room policy"....or at least "clean them up as soon as you are done so the living room stays half decent." They are starting to comply....starting. LOL
9. That God is still God...even when I've been "too busy" to spend time with him, He gives me the strength and peace I need each day. He gently reminds me that He loves spending time with me too!
10. That I married Superman :)
Have a great week everyone!
Wait! But I married Superman!! You don't think he's living a triple-secret life, do you??
